Local context
What to expect in October
🎯 Good diving season — comfortable water temperature and satisfactory visibility Autumn in Dubrovnik is often underrated: 21°C, golden light and declining crowds. An interesting window. Expect rain on 31% of days — a light raincoat in the bag is recommended. Not the best window, but acceptable if dates are constrained. June (9.2/10) is significantly better if possible.
